Now then,ive just finished installing all my interior and i was wondering if my boot was speced out in poverty spec trim?
As it is a Driver i wasnt so sure.
The main parts i was interested in was the carpet and the flimsy trim that covers the rear arches.
The trim over my arches is a strange material and it is dimples.So as im not a fan i wondered if proper mk3's had carpeted arches etc?
Here's mine.

The carpet only goes up to the bottom of the rear slam panel and i didnt know if higher specs went up the panel or not?
Cheers boys.

Len i thought you fitted sound deadening to muffle the screams from the ladies locked in the boot?
:grin: :grin:

It wasnt so much the metal under the seat as i have brown bread for that but i will be fitting that as soon as i get some leather in there.
Was just the dimpled crap on the sides and the fact that the boot carpet doesnt go all the way up to the rear slam panel.
So everyones looks pants then? :grin:

Mine's carpeted. :undecided:

Mine has a carpet over the spare wheel you numpty :grin: i meant the sides and stuff?
-
That's what I meant...
-
Mine has carpeted turrets and sides, but it's an estate.
I'm sure I read a thread like this on E38 and some hatchbacks have carpet but most don't.

Are your front carpets grey Trog?
-

my 8v GTi is carpeted, I guess 8v is superior after all :grin: :lipsrsealed:
-
Mines carpeted too. :grin:. Dont have the tool kit foam though, and my spare wheel is a 16'' steel. :huh: Obviously the previous owner had removed it, and then when time came to sell he just threw something in. It doesnt even fit in properly! :laugh:

yeah mine is a 16" steel space saver and the tool bit in mine is hard plastic with a rubber strap that holds it in.
why is my spare wheel 16" with what looks like a huge tire profile when the standered gti wheels are 15"? :undecided:

My '93 car has the dimpled stuff (1.4 CL) while my '97 car (1.9 CL) has carpet. :)

Early spec was foam and sh!t
mine had it but i swapped it for the carpet that was in the late spec 16v gti i got recently :evil:
-
As Kells mentions above, my 97 16v came with a fully black carpeted boot space.
-
I think from memory my 1996 had carpeted sides.
-
Cheers lads.Do they come in 2 pieces then,just like the foam crap?
-
mine is an early 8v and HAD carpet, until numpty here left a can of oil in the back then promptly burst...
i now have metal and plan to re do it :D
-
Mines the same too, but I've put the gti plastic boot sill cover thing in and it looks ten times better!
